Rotorcraft catalogue

Helicopters take off without a runway, hover and land in small spaces. That makes them useful for passenger transport, air ambulance flights and rescue operations. Explore models from different classes, with photographs and brief specifications.

02 / How to compare

How to compare helicopters

Start with the task: how many people or how much cargo you need to carry, and how far. Then compare the capacity and range of suitable models. For a particular route, check the specifications of the selected variant against the load and departure conditions.

04 / Questions

Questions about the catalogue

What does ACH mean in a model name?

ACH is the Airbus Helicopters corporate range, with interior and equipment options for private and business flights.

Why are there no prices in the catalogue?

The price depends on the variant, specification, delivery date and terms of the deal. For a used aircraft, flight hours and maintenance history also matter.

Can I compare models by range alone?

No. Published range depends on the assumptions used to calculate it. A real route must account for passengers, baggage, fuel reserves and the limitations of the chosen landing site.
